we've cruised almost 100 times and never seen this before

we really enjoy this class of ship it's really beautiful

the brand new mini golf course and it is so much better than what was here before

Royal Caribbean still do the Royal Promenade better than anybody else

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book your future cruise early to avoid long lines on the last day.
Bring everything you need on the ship rather than buying it onboard, as items are more expensive.
Arrive early for trivia at the Schooner Bar to grab a spot.

Interior cabins facing the Promenade might be noisyThey are very well soundproofed, so you won't hear much from the Promenade even during party time.
